UK Alert is the name of the university's emergency notification system.  All UK students, staff, and faculty are registered automatically in the system via their UK email address .  The college also encourages each individual to add additional contact information (cell phone numbers and other personal emails) to enhance the ability to be notified of emergencies on campus. Don't forget to update your information as it changes.

*parents, visitors, and other interested parties may also register as well*

An individual should expect to be alerted on a "best effort" basis when any incident disrupts normal activity or threatens the safety of the immediate community on campus.  The alert system serves as a tool to provide emergency information to the UK community but should not be the only outlet of information relied upon.  Other sources are university email announcements, UK website, local news, and any other readily available news source.
